> few people want to admit to or have grown up without tragedy. Did you indeed mean "without"? (Or did you mean "with", as in: "few people want to admit to have grown up with tragedy"?) (Not a native speaker, maybe I'm missing something) If so, I wonder, what are reasons people want to tell others that they grew up with tragedy? (I wonder what "tragedy" means in your text, eg an alcoholic parent or getting beaten or ... A grandparent died? Quite different things, the word can mean)
